Tidy up welds

[stag36587]

Hi, normally I use a flap disc to smooth welds, but on some parts of the car, the disc is too big. What do others use where space is limited, e.g. Is a Dremel-type tool any use?

Only if you are willing to spend the rest of your life at the task.......

Angle grinder for speed where access is OK.Otherwise weapon of choice is a power file, with a coarse belt to grind down those inaccessible areas, swop to a less coarse belt for final treatment.

Dremel does take for ages and the bits wear quickly and aren't cheap either.

Thanks guys perhaps I can persuade my wife to buy me a power file for an Easter present

I have another question - what primer and filler primer is best? How much difference between e.g. U pol or Autotek and some of the other brands? Is it just a case of you get what you pay for?
